演讲文本
And, of course, the future is looking back 200 years, because next week is the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth.
当然,未来是往回看200年,因为下周是达尔文诞辰200周年。
And it's the 150th anniversary of the publication of "The Origin of Species." And Darwin, of course, argued that evolution is a natural state.
也是“物种起源”出版150周年。达尔文,当然,认为进化是自然状态。
It is a natural state in everything that is alive, including hominids.
是所有生命的自然状态,包括类人生物。
There have actually been 22 species of hominids that have been around, have evolved, have wandered in different places, have gone extinct.
一共有22种类人物种,它们经过进化并在各处漫游,然后灭绝了。
It is common for hominids to evolve. And that's the reason why, as you look at the hominid fossil record, erectus,
类人进化是很普遍的。原因是,当你在看类人猿化石纪录的时候,直立人,
and heidelbergensis, and floresiensis, and Neanderthals, and Homo sapiens, all overlap.
海德堡人,佛罗勒斯人,尼安德特人,以及智人,都有重叠。
The common state of affairs is to have overlapping versions of hominids, not one.
这种事的通常得情况就是有重叠类型的类人物种,而不仅仅就是一种。
And as you think of the implications of that, here's a brief history of the universe.
你在想那些事情的含义时,这里有个宇宙的简史。
The universe was created 13.7 billion years ago, and then you created all the stars, and all the planets, and all the galaxies, and all the Milky Ways.
宇宙在137亿年前出现,接着出现了所有的恒星及行星,还有星系,银河系。

And then you created Earth about 4.5 billion years ago, and then you got life about four billion years ago,
地球时45亿年前出现的,40亿年后出现了生命,
and then you got hominids about 0.006 billion years ago, and then you got our version of hominids about 0.0015 billion years ago.
600万年前出现的类人猿,我们这样的类人时在150万年前出现的。
Ta-dah! Maybe the reason for thr creation of the universe, and all the galaxies, and all the planets, and all the energy, and all the dark energy, and all the rest of stuff is to create what's in this room.
哒哒!或许,宇宙起源的原因,以及所有的星系,所有的行星,所有的能量,所有的暗物质以及别的东西,就是为了创造这间房间里的一切。
Maybe not. That would be a mildly arrogant viewpoint. So, if that's not the purpose of the universe, then what's next?
或许不是。这个观点或许略微有些自大。如果这不是宇宙的意义,那还会是什么?
I think what we're going to see is we're going to see a different species of hominid.
我想我们将会看到的是一种不同的类人物种。
I think we're going to move from a Homo sapiens into a Homo evolutis.
我们会从智人变成演化人。
And I think this isn't 1,000 years out. I think most of us are going to glance at it, and our grandchildren are going to begin to live it.
我认为这并不是1000年以后的事情。我们中的大多数都将会去了解下,我们的子孙后代将会这样去生存。
And a Homo evolutis brings together these three trends into a hominid that takes direct and deliberate control over the evolution of his species, her species and other species.
演化人会将这三种趋势带到一起,变成一种直接且谨慎地控制它自身以及它后继物种的进化的类人。
And that, of course, would be the ultimate reboot. Thank you very much.
当然,那将会是终极的复苏。非常感谢。
